Abstract: An electrophotographic photoreceptor substrate which can be easily produced with high productivity and prevents the occurrence of image defects, and which has fine grooves formed in the surface thereof and is characterized in that the grooves are curved and discontinuous when the substrate surface is developed on a plane.
Abstract: A key duplication system employs a modular key duplication attachment in combination with a high-speed, rotary powered tool and a profiled abrasive cutter. The attachment comprises a base, a carriage assembly movable relative to the base, a profiled stylus secured to the base, a first clamping vise for retaining a specimen key at a fixed (i.e., stationary) position relative to the carriage assembly and a second clamping vise for retaining a key blank at a fixed position relative to the carriage assembly. When so-retained, a bottom flat surface of the specimen key and a bottom flat surface of the key blank rest in a common working plane and the tip of each key is separated by a first distance. The cutter and stylus are aligned and secured to the base such that movement of the carriage, relative to the base, simultaneously brings them both into contact with appropriate surfaces of the key blank and the specimen key, respectively.

Abstract: Apparatus of carrier in a chemical mechanical polishing equipment comprises a carrier module for holding a wafer face down. A retaining ring and conditioning module is coupled to the carrier module, which is used for protecting the wafer edge against contact with a polishing pad in a deformed shape and executing a conditioning of the polishing pad. A first support module is coupled to the retaining ring and conditioning module, which is used for rotating, pressing down, and supplying conditioning chemicals for the retaining ring and conditioning module.
Abstract: An apparatus for sharpening the teeth of a circular saw comprises a rocking arm with a pawl to engage and actuate the teeth of an indexing ratchet wheel which is mounted coaxially with the circular saw for synchronous clockwise indexing, and a grinding wheel capable of intermittently moving forward to contact and grind the saw teeth. A cam mechanism controls the rocking arm so that the land of each saw tooth first contacts the grinding wheel when the grinding wheel moves forward, prior to the contacting of the root and the cutting edge thereof with the grinding wheel when the grinding wheel is about to reach its frontmost position. The saw tooth starts to stop temporarily for a short time when the grinding wheel is about to contact the root and the cutting edge. The problems of damages caused by impacts and/or excessive contact pressure are therefore alleviated.
Abstract: The present invention is an abrasive tool comprising abrasive particles, hard phase particles and a metal bond, wherein the metal bond comprises a near-eutectic copper phosphorus composition. The present invention further includes an abrasive tool comprising a metallic core; and an abrasive composition bonded to the metallic core; wherein the abrasive composition comprises abrasive particles, hard phase particles and a metal bond, and wherein the metal bond comprises a near-eutectic copper-phosphorus composition. The invention further includes a process of manufacturing the above abrasive tool.
